Importance of the early diagnosis of acromegaly. Evolution of mandibular growth and dental occlusion in a case with a late diagnosis.
Review in Journal of clinical and experimental dentistry, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: Despite the high prevalence of oral and maxillofacial manifestations in the early stages of acromegaly, dentists do not represent an important percentage of the healthcare professionals that diagnose the disease. Case Report: The present study describes the buccodental and facial changes occurring over a period of 20 years in a patient with a late diagnosis of acromegaly. Discussion: The facial disfiguration and buccodental problems, particularly mandibular enlargement and malocclusion, may be the key elements leading to the diagnosis. Conclusions: It is essential to enhance awareness of the disease among dentists, and particularly among orthodontists, as they are ideally positioned to recognize and diagnose acromegaly in its early stages.
